Description
CompactIFileXtd() is the extended version of CompactIFile() permitting the use of the FairCom Server security system.
In addition, it can be used to change the file name extension from the defaults used by CompactIFile(). The period is not assumed in the extensions. For example, to name the data file fname.dta, set dataextn to .dta, not dta.
Please read the description for CompactIFile() and RebuildIFileXtd() for additional information.
